The start is in the centre of Ellmau. Take the pedestrian underpass in the direction of the suburb of Wimm and follow this to the former guesthouse of Riesen. From Riesen, the marvellous round trip is best explored in snowshoes. Now follow the winter hiking route through the beautiful winter forest landscape and up to the Biedringer pasture (not cultivated). A magnificent view is offered here of the snow-covered Wilder Kaiser. This is also a perfect place to replenish before heading back down the valley via the farms of Biedring.
